It is narrated from Abdullah bin Masood (may Allah be pleased with him) that I learned seventy surahs directly from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). At that time, Zaid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) was young and under education. He had locks of hair. In another narration, the words are that Zaid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) was a child, he had two locks of hair, and he used to play with the children.
